BWH Department of Dermatology expands at BWFH

Dr. Eva Balash

For more than 25 years, Dr. Eva Balash has been a dermatologist at Brigham and Women’s Faulkner Hospital. She recently left her private practice and joined Brigham Dermatology Associates at BWFH where she and two medical assistants see patients four days a week. These services include the evaluation, diagnosis and treatment of a wide variety of skin conditions.

Dr. Balash says, “I see anyone with skin.” In her office, she treats patients of all ages with rashes, psoriasis, poison ivy and more. “We see everything from a little kid with eczema to an older person with skin cancer, even melanoma,” she says.

As part of Brigham Dermatology Associates, Dr. Balash finds she can focus on the “bread and butter” dermatology she loves. And when a patient is more challenging, she consults with other dermatology colleagues. “Sometimes diagnoses get really, really esoteric. And maybe the person who wrote the article on that happens to be over at Longwood. So when that happens it’s nice, both for the patient and for me,” she says.

Dr. Balash says she will continue to see patients Monday through Thursday. In September of 2014, another dermatologist, Dr. Jason Frangos will be joining to expand the practice to five days a week.
